That was in 2016, surely?

It won't just be Rye riders averages which change -- they'll revert back to beginning of season -- but the average of every rider (apart from guests) who raced against Rye in the annulled matches, as these point will also disappear, meaning an admittedly-minor change in their current averages as well.

Main event is Sunday. Best adult price is advance online purchase £31. Hospitality is £185+VAT.

Both teams will be at full strength at Shielfield Park, barring any Friday-night injuries. Meeting also features Greg Mackie Memorial event between Academy and Ashfield.

Nearly... Dany will be #7. NBJ racing for Grinsted, so r/r at #2.

Try again......

100% correct! The Shawcross Report (still available online) told the story, sorted the SCB and said speedway was a business. Power was stripped away from the axis of SCB/big league mafia and spread across all promotions, forming the BSPA. Where have you gone, Joe Shawcross? A nation turns its lonely eyes to you........?

Kevin Doolan moves to No 1 tonight at midnight!

The hairy one!

Josh G races on a Polish licence, so cannot race in Championship.

Only in line-up. Reserves will stay the same, but Spud will probably drop from No 1.

Bandits will require r/r for Jye Etheridge, covered by NBJ, David Howe and reserves.

PZM licence?

Regular training days are staged. As above, the full Bandits team use it for practice sessions and in 'The Dirt Extra' section of club website, Kevin Doolan's weekly blog is telling of how his Training Day went on Sunday past.

Right now, this afternoon, isn't it pretty good to be a Bandito? Three points clear at the top of the Championship standings with over a third of the matches raced..... The Academy kids sitting on top of the NJL with a 100% record.... Plus Leon progressing in Europe! (stands back, awaits cynical replies...)

Not really. SON can be recorded, Bandits going clear at the top of the table, plus the NJL Academy kids in action, is the main attraction for me.

Don't think the Bandits will line up quite as listed in the opening post.

Kevin Doolan's blog on the Berwick website has some informative thoughts on how the team approached the Brough Park fixture.

Spud's stalking, then his pass, on Tero Aarnio in Heat 13 was sublime.

I'd be pretty sure Jye will be at 3, Dany at 6. But it's a solid squad however they line up!

With Lindman, the average age of the team was 28 years, seven months. With Theo, it will be 30 years, 6 months. Older, but better?

This comes up time and again. Denmark only has priority when the rider is a Dane, not a Brit!

Yes ma'am, away at Armadale on 29th, back home on the 30th. I heard a whisper that, if we make the Final (and why not?) it'll maybe -- just maybe -- be on Sept 1st.......

Ditto on June 29th......

...and it is announced that Bandits will welcome Theo Pijper back to the team from Saturday onwards. Should help, especially at away matches.
